can someone supply us a newer vlc (without gui)?_________________Copyrights and Patents aren't real kinds of property. Copyright Nazis brainwash you to believe they exist so they can chill free speech, innovation, and creativity. Good people DON'T believe that Copyright exists!

- new 'Capture' tab, can capture and transcode File, DVD, Screen
- can only capture and transcode to file at the moment (not URLs)

NOTE: there's a bug, you need to return to the main GUI and click the 'Stop Playback' button,
in order to actually stop the capturing/transcoding. The fix should be added around line 750, if anyone knows how.

Still some issues with remembering some of the Capture settings,
they may appear blank after running a capture or playback cmd...
Note, the settings will only appear blank if you chose 'SAME'...
The fix will be at the end of the execute() func, if anyone cares..

Also, getting working audio in transcoding files seems tricky...
I'm probably doing it wrong, not really an expert on VLC!

@scottman - linux is pretty good about caching the symbols from your shared libraries in order to speed up future uses. This is great when your shared libraries and binaries do not change, but if they do then you can get a mismatch that makes a broken new package _appear_ to work because an old symbol is still cached (an example would be downgrading libflashplayer from v9 to v7 - some flv stuff will work until you reboot or restart X) or the converse situation where a cached external symbol mismatches with the new internal ones and fails to load those particular functions. You also mentioned something about not being able to kill some process. I haven't tracked it back down, but typically it goes like: process args & PID_of_PROCESS=$! ... kill $PID_of_PROCESS (you may need to export the variable depending on where it is used)_________________Web Programming - Pet Packaging 100 & 101

Sorry Techno, but I don't know what I should do with this info...
Is VLC-GTK not actually working at all or something??

I must have gone back a few pages or something. I swore someone had a problem with upgrading vlc and it not working until reboot (or was it only working until reboot)... can't find it now though_________________Web Programming - Pet Packaging 100 & 101

It works well, I think I won't update for a while..
